chocolate projects

I had a great time at my Chicks n Chocolate class. My classes are a great way to make projects and get creatively inspired. Here's a couple of the projects that were a part of the class. Part of what I wanted participants to experience is the versatility of the chocolate chip and early espresso colour. Here's a card we made using crumb cake for the card base and cardstock of blushing bride, peach parfait, cajun craze and chocolate chip. Someone exclaimed that they would never consider putting those colours together but they look great. Surprise!

Here's a little treat holder. I was so excited when I learned how to make this flower using the eyelet border punch. So easy and I've noticed that every flower comes out unique. Baja Breeze and Early Espresso look so elegant together. A square ice brad, a few stamps of the small medalliion from the Artistic Etchings set and some early espresso grosgrain ribbon finish off this project.

We all had fun eating chcolate chip cookies, chocolate timbits, chocolate dipped stawberries and drinking chocolate milk. What a pleasant evening!
